covertly, The Hylian Shield has been placed at the ports of Hyrule Castle , which are still accessible even though half of the castle is floating in mid-air. There are two main entry points , depending on how you want to approach it:

One way to get closer is by water . The easiest way to achieve this is through the Castle City Prison. , on the western island next to the castle itself. Look for a dock at the north end with a raft , and you can include some Zonai gadgets like fans and control sticks to help you navigate, or even use a fused Korok blade with your weapon.

Steer the boat to the northern end, where you will discover the exit to the Hyrule Castle enclosure via another pier . Then look along the northern moat for a small cave entrance by the docks.
